Australian Competition Tribunal

The Australian Competition Tribunal is an independent body that reviews and decides on cases related to competition and fair trading laws in Australia. It handles appeals and applications concerning government decisions, such as mergers, acquisitions, and access to essential infrastructure, ensuring these actions do not harm competition or consumers. Its role is to promote a competitive market environment that benefits consumers and businesses, making sure regulations are fairly applied and that market power is not abused. The Tribunal acts as a safeguard to maintain fair economic practices within the country.
